On the supercongruences involving harmonic numbers of order 2

We prove several supercongruences involving the harmonic number of order two $H_n^{(2)}:=\sum_{k=1}^n1/k^2$. For example, if $p>5$ is prime and $α$ is $p$-integral, then we can completely determine $\sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\frac{H_k^{(2)}}{k}\cdot\binomα{k}\binom{-1-α}{k}\quad\text{and}\quad \sum_{k=0}^{\frac{p-1}{2}}\frac{H_k^{(2)}}{k}\cdot\binomα{k}\binom{-1-α}{k}$ modulo $p^3$. In particular, by setting $α=-1/2$, we confirm two conjectured congruences of Z.-W. Sun.
